In a little-trafficked (by Manhattan standards) corner of the Upper East Side, Heirloom provides you with a haven to retreat, away from the bustle normally associated with the city. That calm feeling has clearly influenced the interior design as well, with certain nods to Scandinavia, and nice variety of houseplants. The kitchen’s a draw too, with a good set of appliances (although no food is provided). It’s set over two floors, with a terrace split over two levels as well, so even if you decide to use the futon, it feels like it’s big enough.

Nestled in the heart of the Upper West Side, this contemporary apartment is an ideal base whether you’re in the city on business or pleasure. The desk in the main bedroom makes remote working a breeze, while the on-site gym ensures you never need to miss a workout. Sure, the kitchen’s a bit of a squeeze, but it’s equipped with everything needed to rustle up home-cooked meals. That said, with a plethora of eateries on your doorstep and the nearby subway making it easy to hop across the city, dining out is always an option.

Situated in the heart of the desirable Upper East Side in Manhattan, you’ll be surrounded by an array of boutiques, restaurants and bars. You can have a stroll along its tree-lined streets filled with brownstone homes or visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park. Housed in a well-maintained building, you’ll be glad to return to this modern apartment. If you don’t fancy eating out, you can create some home cooked food in the well-equipped kitchen. This place is ideal for family, friends or business colleagues looking for a fantastic location in the Big Apple.

Outdoor Seating

Immerse yourself in the excitement of Manhattan from this sleek apartment on the Upper West Side. You'll find Central Park, the American Museum of Natural History, and Broadway within easy walking distance. Inside, it's a modern space with laptop-friendly desk space, making it suitable for longer business trips (though street noise should be expected). The kitchenette is very small, so we recommend eating out. You'll be able to check yourself in, bring along a furry friend, and work out in the shared gym. But the best part about this pad is the little balcony, offering a private spot for you to soak up the big city buzz. 

Manhattan Medley

This cosy home is located in the heart of the Upper West Side, just a short walk from Central Park and the Hudson River. As you’d expect from a studio, space is limited here, but the location and on-site amenities – which include a gym – more than make up for the smaller space. We think the kitchenette is best suited to light bites, as with no oven, you won’t be able to create grand culinary creations – but with an abundance of New York restaurants on your doorstep, dining out is a must. 

NYC Soul

This New York apartment made it into our collection for its desirable location in the Upper East Side. You’ll have the Guggenheim close by for culture and Madison Avenue for shopping, as well as an array of eateries serving everything from classic New York bagels to Michelin-starred cuisine. Though compact, the home has everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay, including a well-equipped kitchen, a full-size sofa, and a dining table. And while there may not be any outdoor space here, the world-famous Central Park is within walking distance if you want to swap the city streets for open space.

Eastside Elegance

This pet-friendly one-bedroom apartment lies in the heart of the Upper East Side, ideal for couples or solo travellers. It's all about location, location, location here, with the subway a short walk away providing excellent travel links for sightseeing or commuting. With plenty to see on foot, you'll be walking your furry friends at Central Park or visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art in no time at all. The kitchen is well-equipped, but we think it's best for prepping lighter bites thanks to its small size. Fear not, though – you'll find a wealth of local restaurants nearby to taste all New York City has to offer.

New York, New York

The Tangerine is a small but newly renovated studio in the Upper East Side. Its decor is simple yet sophisticated and there's a sense of charm that many other corporate style apartments don't have. And despite its size, it's quite well-appointed with a rainfall shower and separate desk space. 



The Tangerine

Located on the Upper West Side, this sleek apartment is a great fit for those travelling on business or looking to visit NYC's countless sights. Just a short walk from Central Park, this spot also offers a welcomed break from the city buzz. At home, you'll find everything needed for a comfortable long-term stay, including a study desk area and a kitchenette – though we think this is best suited to prepping light bites. There's also a single sofa bed here, however, space is limited so we recommend the home for a maximum of two people. 

A Gentle Touch

Why compromise a good night's rest when you come to the city that never sleeps? There's no need to in this quiet and calming Upper East Side duplex. With two floors of space for six of you to unwind at a fantastic value, you'll be content as can be during your stay. And there's even a balcony where you can watch the city pass by on pleasant evenings. Though the decor isn't particularly homey, it's been recently renovated making the bathroom and kitchen especially luxurious. 



Safe & Sound

Hot Tub

Tucked away in the Upper East Side, this cosy apartment lends itself well to a big city stay. Space is limited, but for a work trip or a weekend getaway it's got a great location, and you can even bring a furry friend for a fee. The compact kitchen lets you rustle up snacks or small meals, while the surrounding restaurants and cafes offer everything from classic bagels and cronuts to Michelin-starred cuisine. In one direction you'll find Central Park, with the scenic East River in the other. To top it all off, nearby subway stations make commuting or sightseeing a breeze.

City life is all about location. And this apartment in Hell's Kitchen – a vibrant neighbourhood in Manhattan – delivers just that. Within walking distance to Times Square, the Hudson River, shopping streets, and culinary delights, you can spend your days pounding the pavement and seeing all that this area has to offer. And, while the apartment itself is a tad on the small side, it offers everything you could need for a fuss-free stay in "The Big Apple", with the added bonus of a desk for working on the go.

Just two blocks away from the gates of Central Park, this home is a true gem in NYC's hectic Midtown. It's the ideal spot to enjoy some downtime, whether you're in town to work, visiting friends and family, or simply exploring everything the city has to offer. You can't help but feel relaxed here, thanks to the crisp white colour scheme, tranquil artworks and modern furnishings – we love the big L-shaped sofa where you can put your feet up. And, with the dazzling lights of Times Square and Broadway less than a ten-minute walk away, you're right in the heart of the action. The public transport connections are excellent from here too, and those travelling for business will be pleased to know that a half-hour subway ride takes you to the financial district. At the end of a busy day, the city views are waiting for you back home – watch the buildings light up from the window as darkness falls and plan your next move. 

Perfect Parquet

Tucked away in the Upper East Side, this home is an ideal base for a couple or solo traveller on a New York getaway. Sure, it’s not the biggest, but it has all the essentials for a comfortable stay, including a kitchenette perfect for rustling up light bites. Locally, hop on the Roosevelt Island Tram to explore across the East River, or take a stroll to Central Park to soak up some green space, less than twenty minutes away on foot. 

Upper East Side Essence

In the heart of New York's prestigious Upper East Side, this functional apartment serves as a homely base for families or two couples. Due to its small size, the living area feels a little cluttered – the same is true of the bedrooms, which don't offer much space beyond the bed. We also think the home doesn't get as much sunlight as we would like. That said, you have everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the location is fantastic – you're just a short walk from the East River and Central Park, and there are plenty of eateries and cafes close by.

Pops of deep blue create an instantly calm welcome with wood floors and white walls adding to the serene vibe of this city pad. We love the leafy houseplants and the exposed brick wall by the desk, perfect for catching up on work using the home’s high-speed wi-fi. We suggest less work and more play here, however with countless sights waiting to be discovered right on your front step. 

Explore your neighbourhood’s high-end eateries and chic boutiques, or grab a coffee and take a stroll through Central Park, a ten-minute walk away. The Guggenheim Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art are both within a twenty-minute walk of your home, while Times Square is less than fifteen minutes away by Subway.

The iconic Central Park is easily walkable, and nearby bus and underground stations place NYC's shops and restaurants at your fingertips. Furry friends are welcome to join you here for a fee, and the building offers pet bathing facilities as well as a communal gym for getting in that daily workout, adding extra practicality to your stay.

The Conga

Situated on the Upper East Side, this apartment is an ideal base whether you’re in New York for business or leisure. Remote working comes easily, with a desk set up in one of the bedrooms, while the location means you’re just a short walk from some of the city’s iconic museums, such as the Met and the Guggenheim. Sure, it’s not the most spacious, and the bedrooms, in particular, are a bit of a squeeze, but you’ll find everything you need here and excellent transport links nearby. 

The Tourist

In the heart of the Upper East Side, this pocket-sized apartment makes a cosy base for professionals and couples. It's not the biggest – especially the second bedroom – but the bold designs make the most of the compact space. Well-behaved furry friends are welcome to join you here, so rest assured the whole family will settle right in. There's plenty to explore nearby, from vibrant shops and eateries to the famous Central Park.

This chic apartment is on the fourth floor of a beautiful townhouse in the affluent neighbourhood of the Upper East Side, just a few minutes walk away from Central Park. Striking artwork adorns the walls inside, adding a pop of character to plush furnishings and light-filled rooms. The living room feels lived in like a comfy blanket with its distressed rug and board games for quiet evenings in. Though you’re in the heart of New York here, so you’d probably rather head out for a carriage ride through Central Park or to the trendy bars and fine restaurants of the Upper East Side. If you want to explore further, it’s just 2-3 stops on the subway to Times Square and all that Midtown has to offer.

The Wizards of Central Park

With a View

Trash Compactor

Rooftop Terrace

Timberlake is a comfortable, no-fuss home in a convenient location, though it's not the most inspiring in terms of design. The Upper West Side is a pleasant, friendly environment with access to two great parks and lots of restaurants. We really liked the home’s positioning on the corner of the building, meaning it gets lots of natural light. You can also enjoy the building’s lounge, roof terrace and gym facilities. 

Timberlake

With its tree-lined streets and historic brownstones, it's no wonder the Upper East Side has a reputation for being one of the most prestigious postcodes in NYC. A stay in this stylish apartment will have you living like one of Manhattan's elite – grab a coffee and browse the art galleries on Museum Mile (including the Metropolitan Museum of Art ten minutes away), enjoy an afternoon stroll in Central Park and spend evenings dining at some truly excellent upmarket eateries. If a relaxed evening at home is more your style, the cushy white leather couch has you covered. It's the perfect spot to rest weary legs after a day of sightseeing, and the well-stocked kitchen is ideal for rustling up homecooked meals. The space is bright and roomy, and the design minimal yet sophisticated – think glossy parquet floors in the living area, sleek marble in the bathroom and shiny geometric backsplash in the kitchen. There's also a communal gym in the building and a 24-hour doorman, so you'll be well looked after here, day or night.

The Priestly

Batik Balance is a fresh and beautifully decorated home on the Upper East Side. The terrace off of the bedroom may be small but makes a bright addition to this home and allows tonnes of natural light to flood the bedroom (and the rest of the apartment.) With its desirable location close to Midtown and a bunch of great restaurants and museums nearby, this is a perfect spot for those who are new to the city. 

Batik Balance

This family-size home is only a short walk from Central Park, with many of NYC's other major landmarks within easy reach. Located on the Upper East Side, you'll be just a few steps away from historical buildings, trendy eateries and high-end boutiques. The apartment itself offers everything needed for a comfortable stay, with three uncluttered bedrooms and a study desk area – perfect for those working remotely. The kitchen is fully-equipped for preparing homemade meals, though there's only enough dining space for four guests. That said, there are countless dining options on your doorstep. 

The New Manhattan

Whether you're in town on business or here to experience the hustle and bustle of The Big Apple, this Upper East Side apartment is the place to be if browsing museums, dining at gourmet restaurants and boutique shopping are all on your to-do list. When you're not strolling through Central Park – ten minutes on foot – or visiting the galleries on Museum Mile – the Frick Collection, Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Guggenheim are all within walking distance – you can relax and unwind on the plush velvet sofa in the cosy living room. The bedroom is bright and super stylish, and we love the high ceilings in each room – they're thirteen feet tall and give this home a great sense of space. Though the kitchen is compact, it's still got everything you need to whip up light breakfasts and lunches, and there's even a desk if you need to catch up on work emails. We think it's perfect for a couple or solo travellers wanting to stay in one of the city's most exclusive neighbourhoods.

Built at the turn of the twentieth century, this home is drenched in character and vintage charm. The dark walls and blue carpet add a bit of gloom, which actually works quite well in this nostalgic setting. However, the arrangement is slightly odd because the living room is at the back of the building, meaning there is very limited natural light, while the bedroom faces Madison Avenue, which can get pretty noisy during rush hour. But it's actually this outstanding location that makes the home special – New Yorkers call this the “Upper East Side Gold Coast.”

The Dame

Between the Art Deco skyscrapers that define classic Midtown New York, this cosy city bolthole sits pretty in a red-brick building. In one direction you’ve got the major sights of central New York – the Museum of Modern Art, Times Square and The Rockerfeller Centre can all be reached in just under ten minutes on foot. Not to mention Broadway’s unparalleled theatre scene a couple of blocks away too. Heading in the other direction, you’ve got Central Park just a seven-minute stroll from your front door. Inside, the apartment is all sleek edges with pops of street-style art providing a bit of flavour. The comfy L-shaped leather sofa offers a place to (literally) put your feet up after a day exploring the city and a full kitchen can cater to your every cooking whim. That’s if you're not out grabbing a slice or towering Reubens from the neighbourhood cafés and street vendors.

This Upper East Side home is a beautiful base in NYC. As you enter, your eye is immediately drawn to the private south-facing garden – the perfect spot for laid-back summer evenings. This warm and inviting home has been renovated to the highest standard and features double-height ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. We love the fireplace in the main bedroom, too. In terms of location, you couldn’t be better placed. Central Park is a short stroll away, and the rest of the city’s top sights are within easy reach. 

The Quartet

This Upper East side apartment is perfect for a group who want to enjoy the very best that Manhattan has to offer. Open the door and you'll find pristine parquet flooring, luxurious rugs and tasteful artworks dotted around the walls. It's the ideal place to chill out between adventures, whether you want to sink into the white sofas, cook up some homemade food or simply watch the world go by from the window. Plus, long term residents can take advantage of the swimming pool and gym to take their relaxation to the next level. Outside, you'll find the gates to Central Park are just a ten-minute stroll away, as is Museum Mile – all you have to do is decide whether you're in the mood for fine art, history or both. And, with a wealth of restaurants and bars on your doorstep, your NYC evenings can be just as magical as your days.

Rice Maker

Whether you're in Manhattan for business or pleasure, this apartment is a fuss-free spot to rest your head. It's perched in bustling Midtown East, just a few blocks from the East River and walking distance from landmarks like Rockefeller Center and the MoMA. The apartment itself isn't wow-worthy, but it's stylish enough and the kitchen is well-equipped for an NYC pad. Be sure to take advantage of on-site amenities, ranging from a shared library and rooftop terrace to a communal fitness centre and playroom for little ones. There's even rare on-site parking, but you’ll need to pay to use it.

Found in a highrise in the heart of Manhattan, this apartment, perched above the city, overlooks the skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows. With the home being where it is, you'll find yourself within walking distance of the world-famous Central Park, hip cafes, and other must-see landmarks. With a big tick on location, there's also a communal swimming pool, fitness room and sauna to win you over. Ideal for two couples or a small family coming to explore all the Big Apple has to offer.  

The Manhattan

This apartment is ideally suited to those looking to drop their bags and head out from the get-go. Its major draw is the fabulous location, placing you in the thick of NYC. Just a short walk away you'll reach the iconic Flatiron Building, the Empire State Building, and Union Square – though this does mean that some noise should be expected. Inside, it's surprisingly spacious for a studio flat, with a kitchen and dining area tucked neatly around the corner. There's a sofa bed for flexible sleeping, but we only recommend this for younger children. 

The Artful Zen

Stay in the heart of the Upper East Side, a somewhat quieter pocket of New York City that’s still packed with good food, stylish people and excellent shopping. You’ll be just twelve minutes from the beautiful Central Park – ideal for picnics and evening strolls – and just seventeen minutes from The Metropolitan Museum of Art for rainy museum afternoons. Plus, should you want to explore the rest of Manhattan, the subway station is a quick three-minute walk away. Back at home, you’ll find a neat modern space with natural light and a pleasant feel. With a charming kitchenette, sleek desk, roomy bathroom and private balcony, this little flat has all the comforts of home and then some, making it the ideal rest stop in a city constantly on the move.  

Calm Before the Storm

Live like a true Upper East Sider in this stylish apartment, located in the heart of New York's most exclusive neighbourhood. The host has recently renovated this from top to bottom, creating a smart space that fuses contemporary tastes with traditional touches. You'll love the brick fireplace and statement stable door, juxtaposed with the modern furniture and abstract artworks on the walls. The wooden dining table makes entertaining a breeze, but if you'd rather eat out then you'll be spoilt for choice by the wealth of eateries in the area. Central Park is just a ten-minute walk away, and the world-famous galleries and museums of Museum Mile are just a stroll away too. If you're in town for shopping then nearby Madison Avenue's luxury boutiques won't disappoint, but if you're travelling for business then Lower Manhattan is just half an hour away on the subway.

Floating Staircase

If you’re looking for a fuss-free city pad in one of New York’s most desirable neighbourhoods, then you can stop scrolling now. This contemporary home is located in the heart of the Upper East Side, known for its world-famous museums – including the Met and the Guggenheim – and designer boutiques. While the apartment has everything you’ll need for a successful stay, at full occupancy four people will be sharing one bathroom so it might feel like a bit of a squeeze. We think this place will suit a couple of couples who favour location over square footage.

Uptown Chic

Situated in NYC's affluent Upper West Side – known for its stately brownstones, museums and world-famous park – this modern apartment is perfectly set up for a solo traveller or couple looking to explore the Big Apple. 

Inside, it's a perfectly practical pad with an open-plan living space that allows you to glide seamlessly across the polished wooden floor between the kitchen and seating area. Natural light pours in throughout the day, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows framing the urban metropolis on your doorstep. 

When you're not hanging out at home, make the most of your building’s fabulous amenities. Head to the shared gym, swimming pool or business centre – you've got plenty to keep you busy here. Although with so much to see and do nearby, we recommend you go out and explore the city from this desired location. You're a five-minute walk from Central Park, a twenty-minute stroll from the American Museum of Natural History, while bustling Times Square is just eighteen minutes away on the subway.
